Except—Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney is a devout Mormon. So what does that mean for Election '08? The road to the White House runs through some very fundamentalist precincts in Iowa and South Carolina, and the national political press will have a field day with some of the more unusual Mormon beliefs.

A Mormon in the White House? is the first book on this intriguing candidate and his unusual faith story. Through exclusive interviews with the governor, his family, and closest associates, mixed with candid conversations with some of the country's leading Christian pastors and shrewdest political observers, Hugh Hewitt sets out to explain Romney, his faith, and the importance of that debate in a headline-making and election-shaping opening shot in the campaign before the campaign.

      According to author and radio personality Hewitt, Mitt Romney-billionaire venture capitalist, consummate family man, gifted and media-savvy politician-would be unstoppable in the coming presidential race were it not for one niggling line on his resume: he's a Mormon. In this unashamedly partisan volume, Hewitt attempts to refute the claim that no Mormon could get elected President (along with any other claim that might be made against Romney) while analyzing the former Massachusetts governor's biography and burnishing his conservative and leadership credentials. Hewitt is an agreeable, if inelegant, writer, wise enough to take detours (such as an edifying primer on Mormon history and thought) that stave off tedium. He spends far more time extolling Romney than excoriating his Republican and Democratic opponents. This is an efficient and effective exercise in political hagiography.
